Hey Superkids!

Spring is here and it is finally time to put those jackets and fur-lined boots away! First things first, get your goggles and your best bathing suit ready, because we’re going on an underwater adventure. The latest issue of Supernova is here, and we are going to dive deep with some super intelligent dolphins.

Get ready to show off those beach waves, because the Pinboard starts off where Jules tells us if hair grows faster in the summer. We learn how scientists are using 3D printers to save coral reefs from extinction. And, we have a look at some colourful extra-terrestrial photos from NASA. If you have never heard of a sea cow, you are in for a surprise, because we are going to learn about the cutest, squishiest sea animal ever!

We head over to the Photo Feed where we learn what Island Dwarfism is and how it affects animals! We meet Enoch Sontonga, the composer of our very own national anthem! And, in the Pro-Files, we meet Maya LeMaitre, the comic artist and creator of the beloved Mimi from Mimi’s Life on Mars. If you have ever created your own comic, don’t forget to tell us all about it!

Make sure you pack your camera, because we are jumping on an aeroplane and visiting the gorgeous Galapagos Islands! What is your favourite destination we have gone to so far? Get ready for some sticky situations, because our chewing gum will be telling us about its oldest ancestors and why it was ever invented.
